To complement Stuart Davis’s work, which was deeply influenced by the sounds and rhythms of jazz, award-winning pianist Justin Kauflin will provide a musical performance in the gallery. Kauflin (b. 1986), an American jazz pianist, composer, and record producer, has been blind from a hereditary disorder since age eleven. Kauflin has won the VSA International Young Soloist Award, was selected as a semifinalist in the Thelonious Monk Competition in 2011, and has recorded two full-length albums. He is the subject of the award-winning documentary Keep On Keepin’ On, produced by Quincy Jones.
